The AI industry has fully entered the “agent era,” a paradigm where AI models do far more than generate text — they now actively plan, execute, and course-correct complex tasks over days rather than seconds. Thus, it’s perhaps unsurprising to see Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba’s famed Qwen Team of AI researchers release a model capable of performing autonomous agentic AI work over multiple days: that model has arrived in the form of Qwen3.7-Max which the company reports in a blog post achieved “~35 hours of continuous autonomous execution” — albeit, in a proprietary, not open source format, as prior Qwen Team releases were.
